I opened Photoshop today (Macbook Pro 10.14.6/Adobe CC, current) and my hex code box was just gone. I looked at every view, and they're not included. It appears I have to click on the hamburger menu and copy the hex codes or double click on the swatch. But there's nowhere to input them. Please tell me this is a glitch. I copy hex codes all day long. Disappointed to lose this quick feature. Can anyone explain the reasoning behind it?
Use web color sliders.

Hi there,
Sorry that the Hex Code window in Photoshop is missing.
Are you working with a 32 bit color picker? If so, change to 8 bit or 16 bit mode for the normal picker.
It happened with me once and it was set 32 bit/channel accidentally. After I switched to 8 bit/channel, the Hex code fields appeared.
Thanks,
Akash

This answer helped me. My color picker lost the hex code input- turns out I was in 32 bit mode. Going to Image > Mode > 16 Bits/Channel brought back the hex input for me. Thank you, 4 years later.

This now requires 3 fields to be input, instead of the old single field where you could just paste a complete code.
Cumulatively this wastes a lot of time.

i.e. pasting an entire hex code only works in foreground color picker: not in the RGB / web color sliders.
